Word Problem 18.) You are ordering T-shirts from a catalog. Each T-shirt costs $15. The cost of shipping is $6 no matter how many shirts you order. The total cost is $111. How many T-shirts did you order? please i need help!!!​

Answer:

7 t-shirts

Step-by-step explanation:

Because you know the cost of shipping ($6) is constant no matter the quantity you order (fixed cost), you can subtract it from the total cost of the order to find the total variable cost. Next you divide the left over cost by the cost per t-shirt to get the quantity ordered.

$111 - 6 = $105

$105 / $15 per shirt = 7 t-shirts

Hope this helps!
